09/29/24 Desperate for Freedom

About this episode

Homily from the Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Restriction is the first step towards freedom.

God is good. God wants all of us to have the fullness of life and of joy. God wants all of us to have HIM. But there are things that suffocate joy. There are things in our lives that rob us of God. There are things that we choose to keep in our lives that strip us of freedom. And Jesus calls us to be ruthless in how we approach those things.

Mass Readings from September 29, 2024:
Nehemiah 11:25-29
Psalms 19:8, 10, 12-14
James 5:1-6
